Politics can divide families, friendships, churches, and communities. So how should Christians approach politics without allowing political disagreements to become more important than their faith?
Dr. Jeff Myers, president of Summit Ministries, shares several principles he believes Christians should keep in mind when engaging politically: put allegiance to God before political parties, unite under Jesus, ground your identity in Christ, look to the Bible rather than political platforms as your ultimate standard, and listen to Jesus more than the news.
Rather than withdrawing from political life or becoming consumed by it, Dr. Myers argues that Christians should seek to be engaged without being enraged, treating others as image-bearers of God while standing for what they believe is true. How can a biblical worldview shape the way Christians participate in politics and public life?
